The ancients said: "The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first." But Liu Ye, who is a traverser, has to add a sentence later. "The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass have not moved, the grain and grass have not moved, and the scouts have come out first." How could you not know the importance of intelligence as a traverser?

Unlike scouts in other places, Saigo's scouts are not only specialized in spying on the enemy. There are also those that are specially used for counter-reconnaissance and assassination of enemy spies. These anti-reconnaissance scouts are all elites selected from the military. And he is specially trained by the guards. Each armor has a hundred years of combat memory and experience. There are several people who are very familiar with hunting scouts.

However, today Liu Ye did not let these hungry wolves out to clean up the Nanshan bandit scouts before the army started.

In this operation, just in case, Liu Ye planned to personally lead the first part. After all, he has a God's perspective and is not easy to be ambushed by Nanshan bandits. Xu Ji and Tang Jue led the second part to set off in the evening. Liu Ming and Wang Yan led the third part and set off again the next day.

However, since Liu Ye personally led the first part, the plan had to be changed slightly. The Fei team in the white-robed personal guard followed the first part. After all, Liu Ye's status is noble and cannot be missed. Of course, it is not excluded that a certain traverser is afraid of death.

In order to confuse the Nanshan thieves, he did not swear an oath this time. After all, the ostensible purpose of this trip is to appease and respond to Takeri. Acting should also be played to the fullest.

Saigo, outside the West Mountain Guard, a certain jungle.

"Uncle, hurry up, they're out, the Xixiang thieves are out," said a thin teenager patting the middle-aged man next to him.

"Here, be quiet" The middle-aged man obviously had some experience. Pressing the thin boy's head down a bit, he said softly.

"Uncle, the young master is really accurate. The West Country Thieves really came out. The thin boy said with some admiration.

"Don't talk nonsense, count slowly, and tell so-and-so when you're done." The middle-aged man seemed to know something, so he didn't pay attention to the thin boy, but lay on the ground and pretended to sleep.

“10，20，30……”

"Uncle, look, what are those in white robes?" suddenly, the young man was a little puzzled.

"White robe?" Hearing the young man's words, the middle-aged man immediately opened his eyes and slowly got up.

"White ...... Robe...... Evil...... Demon," the middle-aged man panicked.

He couldn't help but think of that battle eight months earlier.

Eight months ago, due to repeated defeats to Saigo. Annoyed and angry, the old village owner decided to mobilize all the old brothers of the cottage to loot Xixiang. However, the old owner of the village was not completely overwhelmed by the anger. The old village owner also invited the Su village owner of Hushan to send troops together. Although the two villages were previously due to site problems. There is no small contradiction. But in this matter. The two sides came to a surprising agreement.

According to the agreement between the two parties, Nanshan attacked from the south and Hushan attacked from the north. After that, both sides rely on their abilities.

On the day of the attack, Nanshan was besieged by more than 300 Xixiang troops at Guishan. Facing the well-equipped and tacit cooperation of the Saigo Army. Nanshan, which has more than 400 old brothers, has no room for parry.

The middle-aged man personally participated in that battle. He still remembers the fierce battle between his old brother and Saigo. A unit in white robes rushed in. In the face of this small army, his old brothers were easily slashed and killed as if they were being chopped melons and vegetables.

Known as the strongest warrior in the cottage, he was killed by a white-robed punch that shattered the Tianling Gai. The brave and warlike old village owner was also cut in half by a white-robed and axe. Xue Wulang, the most flexible in the cottage, was directly nailed to death on the boulder by one of the white-robed and javelin companies. There was even a white robe that dismantled an old brother in half. They kill people with just one move, every knife, every punch, every arrow, every shot. One of the old brothers fell. It was a massacre.

Finally, the middle-aged man couldn't stand it, and the old owner of the village was dead, so he ran away with his old brother. But the scene at that time is unforgettable for the middle-aged man.

"Lie down" The stunned middle-aged man was thrown to the ground by the young man next to him, and he didn't dare to move. Because at this moment, a white-veined armor was looking here.

However, after looking at it for a while, the white-veined armor didn't seem to notice anything and left directly.

A moment later

Relieved, the middle-aged man covered in cold sweat thanked the young man next to him:

"Gorou, thank you!"

The young man touched his head a little embarrassed and said:

"It's nothing, uncle."

"Uncle, why were you in a daze just now," the young man said with some confusion.

"I remembered something bad."

But then the middle-aged man diverted the topic and said, "How is it, has the number been figured out?" ”

When the young man saw that the middle-aged man didn't want to say anything, he didn't force it.

"About two hundred."

"Okay, let's go back! It's too dangerous here. The middle-aged man didn't want to stay here at all, so he hurriedly said.

"Okay uncle."

……

"Captain, there were two rats in that woods just now, do you want to kill them?" A white-veined armor said. This white-veined armor is the one just now, and the forest he is referring to is the place where the two Nanshan thief scouts were hiding just now.

"No need, if these two mice don't run back, how can the fish take the bait?" Fei Xiang said with some meaning.

……

In the evening, two mice, one in middle school and one in the youngster, slipped back to their lair.

"What you say is true." A Nanshan thief who was missing an arm said.

"Yes, the master of the three villages, there are at least more than two hundred people." It was a middle-aged man who spoke, Hao Ran, the one in the woods just now.

"More than 200 people, it's not easy to fight!" It was another Nanshan thief who spoke.

"Go down and get your reward!" It was the young man who sat at the head who spoke.

"Master Xie Shaozhai, Master Xie Shaozhai" After the middle-aged man kowtowed twice, he hurriedly left.

"Second uncle, third uncle, this is an opportunity. If you don't fight, you won't have a chance in the future," said the young master. Although he inherited his position as the ghost daddy. But he has only been the owner of the village for a short time, and he has no prestige. The big thing of the cottage still needs the nods of the two people in front of you.

"Young village master, don't worry. This matter also needs to be discussed in the long run."

"Second brother, it makes sense. There are also those demons who are with the army this time, and we must not underestimate them." The master of the three villages also persuaded. He also participated in the last Battle of Turtle Mountain. For the white-robed soldiers, he was really afraid of being in a hurry.

looked at some of the second and third village owners who didn't want to fight. The young village master was a little anxious. But he couldn't help it. Now there are not many people in the cottage who identify with him. If he wants to fight, he has to get the help of these two old things. No way, his prestige is too low. His dad hung up without even helping him pave the way. This is also the reason why he is in a hurry to fight this battle, firstly for revenge, and secondly to establish prestige. But now we have to convince these two old things.

"Second uncle, third uncle. I know what you're worried about. This operation is mainly an ambush, and we will not engage them directly. ”

"The terrain of the Erhu Stream, you also know, as long as we block the intersection, it will be difficult for them to run with their wings."

"When the time comes, we can capture the captives and exchange them with Saigo. Replace all the old brothers who were captured in the Battle of Turtle Mountain last year. ”

Speaking of which, the second and third owners were a little moved.

Seeing that his persuasion seemed to be useful, the young master continued.

"Second uncle, third uncle, you also know that since the Battle of Turtle Mountain last year, we have lost more than 300 old brothers. Now in Sanzhai, we have dropped from the first place to the last place. ”

"The village, which used to be honest with us, has begun to be restless. Even some time ago there were several larger villages ready to unite against us. ”

"Second uncle, third uncle, the prestige of our Nanshan has now dropped to the lowest level in years."

"Next year, there will be a few more villages to take care of us! So this battle must be fought," the young master gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, young master, the old man supports you," the second village master said first.

"The old man agrees, the old man doesn't want that group of people to ride on the old man's head, it's time to let the Xixiang thieves see the majesty of our Nanshan."

"Then it's troublesome for the second uncle and the third uncle," the young village lord said respectfully.

"No".

After saying that, the two turned around and left.

looked at the backs of the two gradually leaving. The young master of the village said to himself: "Second uncle, third uncle, don't worry, tomorrow after you die in the second tiger stream with honor, your nephew will help you take care of the young family." ”

……

The moon gradually rose, and a group of Nanshan thieves mixed with many old and sick people left their lair. What will be their fate?
